kate marsh | life is strange

[castitas]

1. My father is the Pastor of my church.
2. My star sign is Libra.
3. I like to get up early in the mornings.

[guidemyway]

I don't believe you're a morning person. For a second.

[castitas]

[ Kate actually has to laugh. ]

I'm usually one of the first people awake in the Community Hall.

[guidemyway]

That doesn't mean anything!

Everyone in the community center could sleep in too!

[castitas]

Honestly, I really am a morning person. Mornings are nice.

[guidemyway]

I know, I'm just hassling you.

I suddenly became a morning person when I got the job of my dreams.

[desperate_times_right]

You don't strike me as an astrology kid.

[castitas]

... Everyone at least knows their star sign—!

[desperate_times_right]

Is that so? Sounds like the lie to me.

[castitas]

Well— don't you know your star sign...?

[desperate_times_right]

No? It's a summer one.

[meadqueen]

I know you get up early. Is the other truth the star sign? I did not think Christian religious leaders could marry.

[castitas]

Clergymen can marry. It mostly depends on the denomination, really. Christianity's got a lot of them these days. Catholic priests can't get married for an example.

But we're not Catholic, we're Protestant.

[meadqueen]

Ah. I was unaware that there were different kinds. [Martin Luther’s 95 Theses are still centuries into her future.] Your father is so influential?

[castitas]

One of those exciting future things, I guess.

In a way? People look to him for guidance, those in his congregation.

[meadqueen]

You must be held to a high standard yourself.

[Sounds stifling.]

[clothed]

[ ...? ]

What is a star sign?

[castitas]

A star sign is what constellation you're born under. Everyone's got one. Depending on when your birthday falls, you'll have one of twelve star signs.

[clothed]

How do you determine which one is yours?

[ seeing as seasons work wholly differently in westeros... but sansa remains well too interested. what could be hers? ]

[castitas]

Well, it depends on which month you're born. The day of the month too. The months of the year usually have two star signs that fall on it as the Earth orbits the sun.

So like, Virgo falls from half-way through August into half-way through September, followed by Libra which is half-way through September into half-way through October.

What month were you born? I could probably take a guess at which one's yours.

[clothed]

[ ...what are. month names. ]

I was born at the turn of winter before spring, in the 285th year after Aegon's Conquest. [ a very awkward pause as she realises this is absolutely of no help. ] How do you know which month is named so?

By Virgo... does that mean the sign of the Virgin?

[flambeaux]

Your star sign is somethin' else. Easy to lie about that.

[castitas]

I guess that's true. But like— I could also totally not be a morning person?

[flambeaux]

You're young enough to be in school and church, highly unlikely that you prefer the night like me.

[ It's a flimsy guess, but he's sticking to it. ]

[castitas]

Just because I go to school and church doesn't mean I have to like getting up early. You should see some of my classmates. Some of them'll roll out of bed with like a couple of minutes to spare before class.
